Isn’t Jev built on top of Qwen?

Isn’t Markdown header the same thing? Kicking the can further until models catch up?

Don’t get the negativity here, AI will replace everything sooner or later.

I think LLMs just push us to think differently - hopefully an elevated way not in a dumb way.

New comment by hartator in "Small Models Have Arrived"

hartator — Thu, 27 Aug 2026 17:04:31 +0000

I have trouble seeing the points of using less capable models.

I just want the smartest, best, and most capable models. It feels smaller models for speed and cost are just transitions towards better hardware allowing the very best model.

Tarrifs are the worst decision a politician can make.

The main reason we have open-ish border for people and goods is to reduce the risk of war. You are not going to wage war with a country that do business with.

This undermines this idea.

It does feel they are trying to ask the government to lock the market for us.

I think I would avocate actually against processes. Processes are nice, handy, and sage, but that assumes you have unlimited time. A baby crying and death approaching really make you rethinking useless 1-1s and meetings.

Why not letting Google Maps decide?

I am noting Opus 5 is omitted. Interesting as I thought it benched better than Fable 5 in a few benchmarks.

I wish we can have a good markdown support with images ala GitHub (good days).
